I PRESS ON | Official Lyric Video | Joel Howard
But whatever was to my profit
I now consider loss
For the sake of Christ
For the sake of You, Jesus
What is more I consider everything a loss
Compared to the surpassing greatness
Of knowing You Christ Jesus, my Lord
For whose sake I have lost all things
And consider them rubbish
That I might gain Christ
And be found in him
Not having a righteousness of my own
That comes from the law
But that which is through faith in Christ
The righteousness that comes by God
and is by faith
I want to know you and the power of your resurrection
And the fellowship of sharing in your sufferings
Becoming like you in your death and so somehow
To obtain the resurrection from the dead
Not that I have already obtained all of this
Or have already been made perfect
But I press on to take hold of that for which Christ
Jesus took hold of me
Brothers I do not consider myself yet
To have taken hold of it
But one thing I do
Forgetting what is behind and straining
Toward what is ahead
I press on
Toward the goal to win the prize
For which God has called me
Heavenward in Christ Jesus
I press on!
